Chapter 185: The Pattern of the Court
"You object to me appointing Di Renjie as the secretary of the ministry?"
Xiao Chen looked at the official who jumped out quietly, and didn't seem to be angry, but the calmer he was, the more frightened he became.
Zhang Liao and other generals who had just been rewarded also looked at him coldly, which made this official a little difficult to ride a tiger, and even began to regret it.
Why did you have a hot brain and jump out to oppose it?
"I ...... I ......"
The official hesitated for a long time, and finally sighed in his heart: "The minister agrees." ”
Seeing this, the other officials suddenly showed a look of disappointment on their faces, they originally thought that someone could stop Xiao Chen, but now it seems that it is impossible.
Xiao Chen's power is too strong, and no one in the court dares to touch his moldy head.
After getting this official's answer, Xiao Chen didn't look at him again, and continued: "The post of secretary of the military department is held by Jia Xu. ”
Another one I haven't heard of!
The courtiers were bitter in their hearts, and these fat shortages were taken away by others.
Jia Xu also walked in from outside the hall, stood in the center of the hall, and under the gaze of the courtiers, he said to Xiao Chen respectfully: "Minister Jia Xu, thank you Lord Longen!"
Xiao Chen nodded to Jia Xu, and then said loudly: "Feng Zhangjiao is the waiter of the Ministry of Rites!"
"Feng Lin Qingming is the head of the household!"
Zhang Jiao and Lin Qingming did not come to the court because of the consolidation of the city defense, but Xiao Chen will not forget their contributions.
At the beginning, he promised Lin Qingming that as long as Lin Qingming could win the military power of Cold Wind City, he would let him follow him.
Now, Lin Qingming has lived up to his expectations and successfully seized military power, which has also indirectly proved his ability, and it is reasonable to vigorously promote him.
However, Lin Qingming's qualifications are too shallow, and at present, he can only be given a four-grade household servant.
No matter how high it is, I'm afraid that his subordinates will also be jealous, and Xiao Chen should also pay attention to these influences.
As for Zhang Jiao, although his qualifications are sufficient, his ability is limited, and he is not enough to serve as a scholar.
Let him be a waiter in the Ministry of Rites, specializing in education and propaganda, and he can be regarded as making the best use of his talents.
In the final analysis, he still has too few talents in his hands to be enough!
When the system comes back, we have to summon more quickly to fill in the gaps in the court.
Next, Xiao Chen promoted many officials of the imperial court.
Of these newly promoted officials, half of them were from the five small families, and half were from some other unknown small families.
As for the people of the three major families, I'm sorry, Xiao Chen didn't promote any of them.
didn't kill them all, and even left some to continue to occupy high positions, Xiao Chen felt that he was already very kind to them.
After rewarding the officials, four forces were roughly formed in the court.
The emperor's family headed by Jia Xu and Di Renjie, although the number is the smallest, they are all in high positions and hold military power, so they are the strongest and most popular among the four factions.
The second force is the three major families, although this force has been suppressed by Xiao Chen, but it has been operating in the imperial court for many years, and it is not possible to eradicate it by killing a few high-ranking officials, and their power is still not to be underestimated.
The third and fourth forces are the newly emerging alliance of five small families and small families.
These two forces have always been inconspicuous, but now they are on the rise, and they have taken down three of the six Shangshu, and they have been in the limelight for a while.
Although this reward has made many people dissatisfied, the general result is also acceptable.
Especially the five small families and those small families, they were even more grateful to Xiao Chen, and began to feel that this emperor might not be bad.
"Although I have ascended the throne, but I have not yet announced it to the world, the Ministry of Rites will choose an auspicious day for the emperor to hold the enthronement hall for me. ”
After rewarding the officials, Xiao Chen said to Zheng Jiuhe, the newly appointed secretary of the Ministry of Rites.
Zheng Jiuhe, the head of the Zheng family of the five small families, is also Lin Wanqing's grandfather, speaking of which, Xiao Chen also killed a martial artist in their family to worship.
The fact that he was the emperor was only spread within Los Angeles, and the local officials of the thirteen counties did not know about it.
The most important thing is that the generals guarding the frontier did not know that the emperor had changed.
Therefore, it is necessary to spread the news throughout the Great Zhou through the ceremony of enthronement hall.
Zheng Jiuhe had just been promoted by Xiao Chen, of course, he was extraordinarily attentive, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister will prepare well and live up to Your Majesty's trust." ”
Xiao Chen nodded and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, you are the pillars of the Great Zhou, I hope that in the future, you can work together to contribute to the world of my Great Zhou, and I will not treat you badly." ”
"But if someone dares to make small moves behind his back and commit the order of five killings, don't blame me for not remembering the old feelings, and when the time comes, I will definitely make him regret it. ”
The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty hurriedly knelt down and shouted in unison: "The ministers will definitely be loyal to Your Majesty!"
Xiao Chen nodded and said, "Retreat!"
......
What happened above the court soon spread throughout Los Angeles.
The people who were rewarded by Xiao Chen were full of joy, and the family that was suppressed by Xiao Chen, of course, did not surprisingly begin to curse Xiao Chen.
These Xiao Chen don't care!
But what he didn't expect was that the three major families didn't say anything about his wanton massacre of their own children.
Even all three families closed their doors, as if they were going to be isolated from the world.
This made Xiao Chen, who originally wanted to take the opportunity to suppress the three major families again, and he couldn't do it for a while.
However, he is not in a hurry, what are the existence of the three great families? He has been based in Los Angeles for thousands of years, and has a profound heritage, how can he be indifferent after suffering such a big loss.
Maybe it's just the calm before the storm now, and behind the scenes, they are secretly planning how to fight back against Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen was not worried about these, but just asked Wang Yue to send the secret agents of the Black Ice Platform to stare at the three major families day and night.
As long as it is within the scope of Los Angeles, Xiao Chen is not worried about what the other party is doing, the current Los Angeles is his private territory, and flies can't fly out.
After Zhang Liao and Li Cunxiao received the order to form a corps, they also began to reorganize their army.
Among the four acropolises, Cold Frost City and Drizzle City combined with 40,000 troops, and Xiao Chen, who was now short of major generals, would certainly not let go.
Zhang Liao and Yuwen Cheng each brought 20,000 troops to surround the two cities, and Wang Yue personally attacked and killed the city lords of the two cities.
The soldiers of the two cities, who lacked the backbone of the main city, hesitated for a while and finally chose to go out of the city and surrender.
With these 40,000 troops, Zhang Liao and others have 280,000 troops to deploy.
Zhang Liao and Yuwen Cheng each led 100,000 troops to form the Tenglong Legion and the Huolin Legion.
The remaining 80,000 troops were taken away by other generals to form other armies.
After Jia Xu took over as the secretary of the military department, he was more in contact with Zhang Liao and other generals, and he was not very tired.
Di Renjie is probably the hardest person, as an airborne official Shangshu, there is no one to use, and he has to cultivate it slowly.
Fortunately, he was a generation of famous ministers, and he was very good at these things, and he quickly stabilized the situation, so that those who doubted his ability were impressed by him.
